I think based upon the log that I am getting logged into SpinnerChief but timeout every time.
My spinnerchief account has version 4, 200 API Ultimate Spins per day with 5000 word for each.
I can login and do manual spins.

[28-Sep-2020 18:16:10 UTC] Rule ID 0 succesfully run! 3 posts created!The above is the only output in your log. SpinnerChief does not have a log that I can find. But based upon the AUTH word I interpret the results as valid login.
Please advise.

Hello,
First of all, thank you for your purchase.
This issue seems to be caused by a firewall rule blocking access to the SpinnerChief API.
Please contact your hosting provider’s support and ask them to allow access to http://api.spinnerchief.com – this is where their api is located. They should be able to check why this connection is not working from your server’s part.
Let me know if this helped.

I see no response and 1 response on this test.
root:~#curl -Is https://api.spinnerchief.com | head -n 1
^C
root:~#curl -Is http://www.google.com | head -n 1
HTTP/1.1 200 OKI’ll try to find out why. thank you
But if you could provide an example curl cmd that your software uses I can get a valid test.
thank you

Hello,
Can you send me, please, temporary admin login credentials to your WordPress install, so I can check this issue out? Send it, please, to my email address: [email protected].

I believe your need to explicitly assign port 443 and not use https
see doc
https://developer.spinnerchief.com/API_Document.aspx
Tested this:
curl http://api.spinnerchief.com:443
curl: (52) Empty reply from servercurl https://api.spinnerchief.com:443
no reply on https
-
Yes, the plugin already uses this port.
Code snippet from it:
$url = “http://api.spinnerchief.com:443/apikey=api2409357d02fa474d8&username=” . $usr . “&password=” . $pss . “&spinfreq=2&Wordscount=6&wordquality=0&tagprotect=[]&original=0&thesaurus=English&replacetype=0&chartype=1&convertbase=0”;

Well This is were you need to determine the problem not me.

Hello,
The only way I can help with this issue is if you send me temporary admin login credentials to your WordPress install, as I already asked before. Send it, please, to my email address: [email protected].
I have checked this on my test server, and for me, spinning works, so this might be an issue related to your website, I need to check it there.
Regards, Szabi – CodeRevolution.

Hello,I checked and found 2 issues with the spinner:1. There is an issue on SpinnerChief’s part, if the request contains characters like … than their API request is failing with the timeout issue you saw earlier on your site. I reported this issue, I hope they will fix it as soon as possible. Until then, I updated the plugin an automatically remove these characters from the API request, and as a result, the API works. Ticket I created: https://support.whitehatbox.com/Ticket/TicketEdit?ticketID=1Kghw2CIYZj0OItsvy2JLS5BUQKCsEv42. You need to enter your username and password in the plugin settings (no additional info required). I need to change the tooltips for the plugin, to make this less confusing. I fixed plugin settings also, now spinning works.Please check.Regards.
